OpenManage Enterprise 4.0.x User's Guide

Create profiles

Profiles can be created using the existing deployment templates for deployment on existing target devices or can be reserved for auto-deployment on the yet-to-be-discovered devices.

Prerequisites

Only users with OpenManage Enterprise Administrator or Device Manager privileges are allowed to perform the Profile Management tasks. See Role and scope-based access.

Steps

  1. Go to the Profiles screen by clicking Configuration > Profiles.
  2. Click Create to activate the Create Profiles wizard.
  3. In the Template section, select the Template Type as either Server or Chassis and then select a deployment template in the Select Template drop down list. Click Next.
  4. In the Details screen, modify the Name Prefix and provide a description in the Description box if needed. In the Profile Count box, enter the number of profiles. Click Next.
  5. Optionally, in the Boot to Network ISO screen, select the Boot to Network ISO check box and specify the full ISO path, the file share location, and choose a Time to Attach ISO option to set the number of hours the network ISO file will remain mapped to the target device(s).
  6. Click Finish.

Results

Profiles are created based on the deployment template name and the count provided. These profiles are listed on the Profiles screen.
